Timing of gene expression and recruitment in independent origins of CAM in the Agavoideae (Asparagaceae).
K. Heyduk, E. McAssey, J. Leebens-Mack
The paper compares gene expression and molecular evolution of CAM-related genes across three independent CAM origins in Agavoideae, finding conserved time-of-day profiles but lineage-specific drought responses and novel PPC2 recruitment.
